Reduce the complexity and effort of managing compliance

Compliance has become harder to manage as SOX, SOC, CMMC, PCI, DORA and other regulatory requirements expand and control environments become more complex.

A compliance automation platform helps you manage these challenges by automating the mapping, monitoring and maintenance of controls across regulatory requirements.

Organizations are also navigating evolving data privacy expectations, increased reliance on third parties, emerging AI governance requirements and the added complexity of maintaining compliance across cloud environments. Teams spend significant time interpreting regulations, mapping them to internal controls and maintaining documentation—often using manual processes that are difficult to scale.

RSM Atlas offers an artificial intelligence-driven compliance automation platform that supports a more structured and efficient approach to mapping, maintaining and optimizing control environments.

What RSM Atlas helps you solve:

Create a more efficient and aligned approach to regulatory requirements

RSM Atlas helps organizations align regulatory requirements directly to existing control environments through an artificial intelligence-enabled approach. Instead of forcing you into a predefined framework, RSM Atlas allows you to leverage your existing control environment and map it directly to multiple regulatory requirements and leading practices.

The compliance automation platform leverages large language models (LLMs) to analyze regulatory content and control definitions, accelerate mapping, refine control language and identify gaps or redundancies. Combined with RSM’s risk and compliance experience, RSM Atlas supports a compliance approach that reduces manual effort and allows your team to focus on strategic priorities. This helps you move from periodic, manual compliance activities to a model of continuous compliance monitoring.

RSM Atlas key features and capabilities:

AI-enabled cross-framework mapping

Align your internal controls with regulatory requirements quickly and accurately, without relying on manual mapping processes.

  • Map controls to multiple regulatory frameworks and standards simultaneously
  • Maintain alignment as regulations evolve
  • Reduce the manual effort required to interpret and connect requirements
  • Improve mapping consistency across control-to-regulation relationships
Integration with existing regulations

Use your existing control environment as the foundation for compliance, rather than creating controls that align with rigid, prebuilt frameworks.

  • Import and structure your organization's current control set
  • Avoid rework caused by adopting external, standardized frameworks
  • Tailor mappings to your specific regulatory and operational needs
  • Maintain flexibility as your control environment evolves
Compliance gap analysis

Identify missing controls and eliminate redundancy to create a more efficient and effective compliance program.

  • Detect gaps where regulatory requirements are not fully addressed
  • Highlight duplicate or overlapping controls across frameworks
  • Reduce control sprawl and unnecessary complexity
  • Improve overall coverage while streamlining your program
Control ownership and accountability

Assign clear responsibility for controls to support consistent execution and ongoing compliance.

  • Assign controls to specific roles, teams or individuals
  • Define accountability across compliance and risk functions
  • Support coordination between audit, risk and security teams
  • Improve visibility into ownership and responsibility
Continuous compliance monitoring

Maintain compliance more efficiently by updating mappings and controls as requirements and environments change.

  • Update control mappings based on new or evolving regulations
  • Reduce the need for manual reevaluation of compliance status
  • Maintain a current view of compliance alignment
  • Support ongoing program maintenance without additional manual effort
Automated evidence collection

Streamline audit readiness by automatically collecting, organizing and maintaining documentation that supports control activities.

  • Reduce manual effort associated with gathering evidence for audits and assessments
  • Centralize documentation and supporting artifacts in a single, accessible location
  • Maintain up-to-date evidence aligned to regulatory requirements and control activities
  • Improve traceability and transparency for audit and compliance reviews

How RSM Atlas accelerates compliance alignment and execution

RSM Atlas combines LLMs with structured workflows and deep compliance experience to streamline the interpretation, mapping and maintenance of regulatory requirements. This approach reduces manual effort and improves the speed, accuracy and consistency of compliance efforts.

Step 1

Ingest and structure regulatory and control data

RSM Atlas pulls in regulatory requirements and your existing control framework to create a consistent, centralized foundation.

Step 2

Analyze and map controls to requirements

LLMs identify relationships between controls and regulations, accelerating the control mapping process and reducing manual interpretation of regulatory requirements.

Step 3

Identify and resolve gaps, overlaps and inefficiencies

The platform surfaces missing controls and redundant coverage to improve alignment and streamline your program.

Step 4

Maintain and update compliance continuously

RSM Atlas updates mappings as regulations and controls evolve, supporting ongoing compliance without repeated manual effort.

Align operations to meet regulatory requirements

Reduce time spent on manual compliance activities

Reduce the time required to interpret regulations and maintain alignment through AI-enabled control mapping and analysis.

Improve accuracy and reduce human error

Replace manual processes with structured analysis to ensure more consistent, reliable control-to-regulation mapping.

Increase efficiency across compliance and audit teams

Free up internal resources to focus on higher-value activities instead of repetitive tracking and documentation.

Strengthen alignment between controls and requirements

Connect your control environment, which is directly connected to regulatory obligations, reducing gaps and improving coverage.

Streamline compliance processes and reduce complexity

Eliminate redundant controls and simplify your framework to create a more manageable and effective program.

Respond more quickly to regulatory change

Adapt to evolving requirements faster by updating mappings and controls without restarting manual processes.

Frequently asked questions

What are the trends in compliance automation platforms?
Compliance automation platforms are shifting from static tools to dynamic systems that enable continuous compliance monitoring across multiple regulatory frameworks. Trends include AI-driven compliance analysis, integration across risk, audit and security functions, and unified control environments that reduce duplication. Platforms must also scale across global operations, third-party ecosystems and cloud environments without increasing manual effort.
How is AI changing how compliance automation platforms function?
AI is transforming how a compliance automation platform analyzes, maps and maintains controls. Large language models automate control mapping, evaluate regulatory requirements, and identify gaps or overlaps. These capabilities enable continuous compliance monitoring, improve accuracy and reduce manual effort, turning compliance into a proactive, scalable function instead of a periodic process.
What is the first step in developing an automated compliance program?
The first step is creating a clear view of your control environment. Inventory existing controls, map them to regulatory requirements, and identify gaps and overlaps. A compliance automation platform helps centralize this data and accelerate mapping, allowing you to prioritize remediation and establish a scalable compliance framework.
What are some examples of successful implementations of compliance automation platforms?
Organizations use these platforms to unify frameworks such as SOX, SOC and PCI into a single control environment, reducing duplication and simplifying maintenance. Other use cases include improving audit readiness through centralized documentation, strengthening control ownership and enabling faster responses to regulatory change through continuous compliance monitoring.
What is the ROI of a compliance automation platform?
The return on investment comes from reduced manual effort, improved efficiency and lower compliance risk. Organizations save time on control mapping, regulatory analysis and audit preparation while reducing duplication across frameworks. Continuous compliance monitoring also helps avoid audit findings and penalties, enabling teams to scale compliance without adding headcount.
